167 Blood Energy (II) Cain immersed himself in his cultivation, and his sole focus was enhancing his Blood Refinement Art as fast as he could. Every ounce of strength would be helpful in his escape from this place, and the time was coming closer and closer with each day. He had spent almost two weeks inside the giant cauldron full of boiling blood. Thanks to the incredibly potent blood essence he obtained with each mouthful, his Blood Refinement Art had advanced at a crazy speed. After thirteen days of non-stop training, Cain was surprised by a strange feeling. It was as if thousands of ants were trying to excavate a path out of his bones, through his muscles, and break the skin so they could finally exit his body. Cain grew ecstatic as he felt his body go through another session of marrow washing, and he began to push his Blood Refinement Art with even greater strength. Every session of marrow washing was a lucky chance that would increase his strength and Wave Talent and help him establish a more robust foundation for his future cultivation. A foul black substance began to excrete through Cain’s pores, but luckily the boiling blood incinerated it all instantly. Cain consumed the boiling blood faster and faster so he could revolve the Blood Refinement Art with greater strength. At this point, his body began to tremble, and a sudden rush of energy overflowed his veins. It was a new form of energy that tempered Cain’s flesh and blood and appeared just at the right moment since it helped him push out even more of the pollution inside his body. Cain did his best to control the thrill of feeling this new power and focused on his marrow washing as an impressive amount of black filth left his body. ..... It carried on like that for a very long time until Cain felt he clashed against a wall, and no more pollution left his body. He felt as if there was something that stopped him from carrying on with his marrow washing. There was nothing that Cain could do about it, and now that things finally calmed down, he focused on the new energy coursing through his body. After understanding its nature and the events that led to it, he came to a single conclusion. ‘I managed to break through to the second level of the Blood Refinement Art and obtained Blood Energy!’ Cain knew that he should only have been able to enter the Blood Refinement Art’s second level after becoming a Wave Champion, but it seemed that the giant cauldron and an almost endless source of blood essence helped him circumvent that wall. He experienced a massive boost in his strength thanks to the breakthrough in the Blood Refinement Art, and his marrow washing improved his condition and the speed at which he could mobilize his Astral Wave. There was a massive overall increase in Cain’s strength, and there was no better time to have that than now when he found himself in great danger. ‘Absolute Life Form System, scan my body.’ Cain could not wait and commanded the system to show him his new strength. [Scan of Vessel completed — Name: Cain Laurifer Race: Godslayer Humankind Path of Power: Astral Rebirth (Level 4 Wave Warrior) Lineage: Lightning Lupus Wave Talent: Pseudo Tier 6 — Stats: Strength: 3.3 Agility: 2.1 Vitality: 4.4 Wave: 1.6 ???: ??? — Marrow washing: 74% completion — Note: According to the data gathered, the new energy source inside Vessel belongs to the power known as Blood Energy. This energy is not generated naturally by the body, so Vessel will need to refine more by using blood essence once depleted. — Quantifying Blood Energy according to the parameters used to measure Astral Wave. — Blood Energy: 5.1] Cain knew he had grown very powerful, but those stats shocked him. His strength and vitality were the main focus of his Blood Refinement Art, reaching the standard for a Level 6 Astral Wave Warrior! There was also an increase in his speed thanks to his enhanced muscle mass and bone density. Cain’s eyes narrowed as he took another mouthful of boiling blood and revolved the Blood Refinement Art. A small smile appeared on his face, and he sighed as he felt the result. ‘I can still use the Blood Refinement Art to obtain blood essence, so I can heal my body or replenish my Blood Energy, but there is no effect on my power. It seems that even with high-level resources, I will not be able to advance in the art without first increasing my cultivation.’ Cain was not surprised since he knew that no matter how great your auxiliary technique could be, your main source of strength would always be your cultivation base. ‘It is fine. This new power should grant me a good enough chance to leave this place. And it seems that the time is about to arrive.’ Cain used his [Basic Scan Force Field] to see the situation around the room and knew the first clinical trial was about to end. The giant cauldron had a tenth of its original volume occupied, and only three youths were left alive by this point. As for what happened with the guard, they all found their end inside the rivers of boiling blood. Morgana had left, and only Cristian and the other two scientists were in the room. Cain was sure that the masked old woman would return to see the end of the clinical trial, and he needed to act the moment that happened. Since Morgana was absent, Cain was not afraid of the trio detecting his Ego Wave, so he sent it toward Iris. “Little girl, I am back.” Iris could not help but smile when she heard King’s voice again inside her mind. Still, she did not lose composure and kept her mind focused. “I am delighted to hear your voice again, King. I have followed your instructions to the letter, but I am afraid I have yet to awaken the new Lineage.” Iris had done her best and could not help but feel disappointed. King had told her that the Lineage was close to awakening, but she did not manage to do it. “Don’t worry. Actually, the number of Lineage’s genes inside you is more than high enough, but the genetic flaws are preventing the evolution of your genome. I will fix that immediately.” Iris was shocked to hear the ease with which King spoke of a problem she could not even comprehend. However, she did not have time to be absent-minded as the familiar force began acting on her genome. As the genetic flaws in Iris were suppressed, she felt like a new force inside her genes was finally set free and began to fill her body with immense power. Cain waited until Iris’ power reached its peak before speaking to her again. “Use this time to get used to your new power. The moment the gate to this room opens, I will activate something that will raise mayhem, and you will need to push your Wave Cloak to its maximum power to protect yourself.” King did not give her details about the mayhem source, but Iris trusted this one so much she did not question him and was ready to follow his command. “After that, make sure you rush to the teleportation matrix as fast as possible. The moment someone on the 1st floor activates it, it will also activate here on the 11th floor, and you will use it to leave this building.” Cain carried on, giving more and more instructions to Iris, giving her an exact path from this place all the way to the surface. Iris nodded and made sure to engrave every single word in her mind, making sure she would remember all of it. Once King finished, she began to adapt to the enhanced strength, speed, and vitality that the Lineage granted her. Cain lay flat on the giant cauldron, making sure what remained of the boiling blood still covered his body. His eyes grew sharp when he saw that Morgana had woken up and was coming to the room. He focused on Simon’s corpse, specifically the contents of this one’s stomach. He did not allow the Recovery Capsule to scan the scion because of the trump care he left inside. The price he had to pay for them was so high that when Cain remembered it, he almost cried. Everything happened extremely fast. The moment the gate opened, and before it could close, Cain activated the thing inside Simon’s corpse. “Now!” Iris heard that voice in her mind, and without hesitation, she pushed her Essence Wave to the limit, making her Wave Cloak burst with immense strength while generating a protective whirlwind around her body. The burst in the Wave from the Recovery Capsule that held Iris shocked Cristian, the other two scientists, and Morgana, who was just entering the room. “?BOOM!” Before they could get over the shock of Iris still conscious and full of power, the Recovery Capsule with Simon exploded, unleashing mighty flames that destroyed everything.
